Hazzard Garage/ Boars Nest
Hobie Hartkins reacted to floyd012010 for a topic
I haven't been here in awhile. Life happens and so I quit my job and started my own business. Anyway just recently I was told of a museum close to where I live that was like the Boars Nest. Literally 20 minutes from my house out a little 2 lane road was this awesome spectacle. It is Cooters garage from the California episodes and it is very much tv accurate. To the RH side he has built a screen accurate Boars Nest and when I say it is screen accurate I mean down to the original juke box and pinball machine. Boss's office has the pool table and the big sword fish on the wall. I can't figure out how to post pics on here since I'm just not great with that kinda stuff but I got a clip of the inside of the Boars Nest and several pics of the outside right down to the red Hoggoco gas pumps out front. The guy has a daisy jeep and a patrol car. The general lee is in the paint shop and he also has a Cadillac and a wrecker in the works too. It's hard to explain in words just how awesome this place looks but it is really cool1 point -

We had a rare sunny day coinciding with a weekend yesterday, so I took a trip to the beach with some friends. I even seem to have learned how to apply enough sunscreen not to come home burnt! On our travels we went through a place called Ballygarrett (Baile Ghearóid in Irish, meaning 'town of Garrett').1 point -

Yeah normally they put tape over the vehicle brand names. Like they did to the Plymouth Patrol cars and Luke and Catfish Lee's Everlast boxing gloves had tape on the name. Gilligan's Island did this with Alan Hale Jr.'s Lancaster Uniform Cap Co. Skipper hats. The interiors are lined with Gold Silk Satin Sateen and say Lancaster Brand ASK THE MAN WHO WEARS ONE Established 1929 Los Angeles Calif. In Gilligan's Island, these interiors were just the Gold Silk Satin Sateen lined in plastic film no writing.1 point -
What I'm Doing Right Now!
RogerDuke reacted to Hobie Hartkins for a topic
Hello fellow Hazzardites! Right now, I'm enjoying a few adult beverages and watching James Best on The Killer Shrews ! ( 1959) This is pretty good! Has any one here in Hazzard seen this? What did you think?1 point -
Seeing as NASCAR likes dry tracks, I thought y'all might like to see a wet qualifying session in F1 (squeezed into 7 minutes). It's not unusual to get bad weather at the Belgian Grand Prix, but it's meant to be fine for tomorrow's race. Despite the rain, there wasn't a single spin or crash during qualifying, and only a few slides. You can watch here. Spoiler alert: Max Verstappen was easily quickest, and took pole position, but he'll start from 11th after a 10-place grid penalty for exceeding his engine allowance. That promotes Ferrari's Charles Leclerc to a surprise pole position with Max's team mate Sergio Perez having a better session to start in second. Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) and Lando Norris (McLaren) start third and fourth.1 point

Yeah. It don't make sense for the Jeeps to look similar when different characters drive it in different episodes.1 point -
Yes, that was another similar Jeep. You can also see dark brown Jeep Wagoneers in 'Witness for the Persecution' and 'And in This Corner, Luke Duke'. In the latter, you actually get to see the Wagoneer badge close-up when Luke is being kidnapped, which is unusual product placement for the show. From season 3, the end credits included "Some vehicles supplied by AMC". They owned Jeep at the time, so the Wagoneers were probably just supplied to promote the model. I've spotted a few differences: there were at least three different wheel designs, there are two different shapes for the wood trim on the sides, and at least one of them had a chrome bull guard, so I'm now doubting that it was the same vehicle. It's just strange that they were always the same color when they were driven by different characters, so there was no need for continuity.1 point

Happy Birthday, Jimmie
RogerDuke reacted to Hobie Hartkins for a topic
I never got to meet him but he did send me his pic and autograph, along with Flash's autograph! He sent it to me when I bought his tape with him and sorrel fishing on his yacht. Sorrel wasn't used to fishing and being on the water and got sick and leaned over the boat!1 point -
Happy Birthday, Jimmie
RogerDuke reacted to Garrett Duke for a topic
Thank you Roger for putting this and reminding me. I remember years ago I went to a car show an hour or so away from where I live, because Jimmie (Rosc0) and Ben Jones (Cooter) was there. It was around this time of year. I was in line to see Ben Jones when I remembered Jimmie's birthday and I went and wished him a happy birthday. His whole face lit up. Made my day and is something I will always remember.1 point -
I wish the government didn't allow monopoly's. So sick of dealing with my ISP who unfortunately is the only one that services our complex because we're on the wrong side of the street. Last month they talked my wife into a service ""upgrade"" that would save us $20+/month from our grandfathered in plan. That ""upgraded"" plan has doubled our bill this month since the associate completely fubar'd our account. Heck we couldn't even log in to see our bill until tech support unlocked it last night. He also looked at the account trying to figure out what the associate did and try to fix it. Unfortunately it looks like he was only able to knock $20 off the bill as our bill is still ridiculously high. I told the wife if they won't lower it to what they said then cancel it.0 points
